Description
Built on live data from NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center (swpc.noaa.gov) and NASA (api.nasa.gov), BorealisBuddy gives you everything you need to see the aurora — from real-time Kp index monitoring to an interactive aurora compass that points you exactly where to look.
REAL-TIME AURORA TRACKER
• Live Kp index, solar wind speed, Bz magnetic field, and Newell coupling
• Boulder K-index updates every minute — 180x faster than the standard 3-hourly Kp
• NOAA G/S/R geomagnetic storm scale status
• Hourly cloud cover forecast so you know if skies will be clear
SMART AURORA ALERTS
• Multi-tier alert system: Building → Likely → Strong → Go Now
• Alerts are location-aware — tuned to your geomagnetic latitude
• Cloud cover suppression — no alerts when it's overcast
• Background monitoring every 15 minutes, even when the app is closed
AURORA COMPASS & MAP
• Live OVATION aurora oval map shows exactly where the aurora is right now
• Directional compass tells you which way to look from your location
• Color-coded ring shows aurora intensity by direction
• Naked-eye visibility model — shows what you can actually see, not just what exists
AURORA FORECAST & HISTORY
• 3-day Kp forecast from NOAA
• Solar wind propagation — see what's heading toward Earth from L1
• Historical Kp data back to 1932
• Storm event timeline from NASA DONKI
AURORA CAMERA (Pro)
• Manual exposure, ISO, focus, and white balance controls
• Optimized presets for aurora night photography
• RAW capture support
• Long-exposure mode via foreground service
PRO FEATURES
• Real-time alerts — unlimited rising-edge alerts throughout the night as conditions strengthen
• Aurora camera with full manual controls
• Custom Kp alert threshold (overrides auto location-based value)
• Storm mode — 3-minute rapid checks when geomagnetic activity is rising
• Quiet hours — pause alerts while you sleep
• Planning mode — simulate aurora conditions at any location and date
